Starting the "official full first week"
only had two trading days last week... account up to 843$.. so gonna post an update at the end of this week, and an overview.
I hope that your trading is going well, and an update would be appreciated (when you get a chance).

Hey guys, sorry for the lack of updates. Got a new night shift job at a home and ive been working at night, and trying to trade during the day.
Havent been as active when I was unemployed.
Account was up to 1100 at the end of last week.
This week started off bad, with a max drawdown to 310$.
Made some bad plays & finally learned the reason to use stop loss, and to leave bad trades once they go against you..instead of waiting and hoping for a turn around.
I got the account back up to 450$.
I went ALL IN on NFLX calls 125 @ .11 ....tommorrow im looking at account balance of 25,000 +
So all i got to say to the ones who doubt is ahahahahahahahahaha

Congrats on your 'all on black' moment (assuming you arent just fucking with us).
Now put 90% of that in a college fund for your kid and pretend like it never happened.

Im actually going to do just that..
5k for a college savings account for the child investing conservatively
5k to my mother for house repairs
10k for a new account at IB, so I can start with my "real" strategy of put selling and put spreads.
and whatever else is left will go for play, or into the savings account for daily living.
never thought id be even above 5k this early on (knock on wood),
especially after those losses early in the week.
im scratching my 100k "goal" as im satisfied with 25k. Gonna do some things with this money like I laid out above, and come monday im gonna start a whole new strategy, no more risky business as I have enough bank (in my opinion) to start treating this like a real buisness instead of a speculative casino.. although I will still do some call buying it will no longer be a main part of my over all strategy.
